If you are visiting this site looking for someone to appear at your meeting, performance, celebration or event as President Lincoln, Mary Lincoln, or both, or even one of the other historic figures we count among our members, you have come to the right place. Look around and you are likely to find exactly what you need, perhaps closer than you might expect.
If you portray President or Mrs. Lincoln or any other historic figure, look around and see what we have to offer. You can look at our history, including our past conferences. We gather each year for an annual conference in April to visit and to learn about the Lincolns and to polish our craft. Our newsletters are titled Lincarnations and Mary’s Velvet Rose. Our web page allows us to share our knowledge and our experiences. Join us!
April 9-12, 2026
Please save the date (April 9th – 12th, 2026) and plan on joining the Association of Lincoln Presenters in our 30th annual conference in the “Bourbon Capital of the World”, Bardstown, Ky!
During our 2026 conference, we will visit many significant Lincoln historical venues including the Lincoln Museum and his birthplace in Hodgenville, KY. We will tour the Civil War Museum in Bardstown and also tour the “My Old Kentucky Home” State Park and mansion. We will eat at the historic Old Talbott Tavern where the Lincoln family stayed as young Abe witnessed a land dispute trial held across the street at the courthouse. This tavern is one of Kentucky’s oldest continuously operating establishments and the oldest stagecoach stop west of the Alleghenies. We will tour the Oscar Getz Whiskey History Museum, visit the Knob Creek home and visit the Kentucky Railway Museum highlighted by a lunch on the train.
In addition to visiting the incredible venues, our host hotel will be the beautiful Fairfield by Marriott Inn & Suites Bardstown. We will have daily guest speakers to enrich our knowledge of not only Lincoln, but the greater Bardstown area.
Larry Elliott will be the conference host in Bardstown. Please direct all questions to him at larrylikelincoln@gmail.com or call him directly at (502) 599-6830.
We look forward to seeing you in Bardstown!
